I think parenthood is a wonderful balancing act. On the one hand, you want to spend as much time with your children as possible. On the other hand, you want to set an example for them to see that you're fulfilled in your life and in your work.

We see death constantly on film.

My rule of thumb is that I want to do things I'd like to go and see myself.

What's enjoyable for me, as an actor, is to do as many different things as possible.

I'm a big fan of vampire movies generally and that sort of tradition of characters.

Having said that, what I think we found, in doing the show, and in life, generally, is that the more you try to separate sex from everything else, it's impossible. You can't. The act of observation affects the actual experiment, and we see that in this.

My own daughter is a big fan of the 'Twilight' stories, the books.
